Hampshire College is looking for a #SystemsLibrarian. $68k/yr. MLS or similar & 3 years of experience; equivalent alternatives to formal education & paid work experience considered. Review of applications begins Dec 2.
Pay is a little low for the area. Hampshire is a delight, but the college isn’t doing well financially. Still, a decent job for an earlier career systems #librarian. #LibraryJobs #LibJobs #LISjobs #LibraryLife #LibraryHiring #hiring

Is the #librarian job market in Canada really brutal right now? I dunno, I'm on the margins of it as a library technician. Was talking this weekend with a friend who lost his academic library job back in the spring, been on EI since and only got one interview (for an on-call pool) in that entire time. Is it just his bad luck?
nice

Do you wanna be neighbors? How about applying for this #metadata unit coordinator position: https://careers.umass.edu/en-us/job/524447/metadata-coordinator-hybrid-opportunity
Do the "informational interview for this position" webinars really work? I'm seeing more of them and I guess for a cluster hire that might work but for a single niche librarian role it seems excessive. Does it reduce enough of the hidden curriculum of academic hiring or just reinforce access barriers by privileging those who can randomly attend midday?
